two, with romney we don't know exactly what sort of foreign policy he would follow. the romney of the most recent debates was saying very different things than what was being said before. if you want one example of things that could flub up from day one, romney has said if he becomes president, he would declare china a currency manipulator on this very first day. that might have been okay ten years ago or five years ago when china didn't see itself as a much bigger sort of superpower to rival america. if he comes out and does it this time, i don't think china is in the mood to take ultimatums from an american president. you would immediately have a very rookie path there, including a not very nice trade spat. >> is there a way in which to gauge which candidate the world or the majority of foreign nations would prefer to win that white house race? >> i think on the whole, if you look at the national polls done by people outside america, they tend to favor obama. i wouldn't read too much into that. i think again and again the europeans tend to favor the democratic cand

they didn't take full advantage of mitt romney's lack of experience with foreign policy. in helping to connect the dots between an inexperienced person with foreign policy and the domestic economy. he could have connected the dots better between george bush rush sbug w rushing into war and he didn't do that. this is a man who had to flee, basically, the states. he characterized as he decided to go to the olympics. but the truth of the matter is he had a sub-40% approval rating when he was leaving office. it wasn't as if he opted to leave, voters were kicking him out. he did not do a good job. president obama pointed that ouou out. he spent too much time on taxes and bain capital. the other thing i think they did not do well was connect the dots with women's rights. they spent too much time on abortion and contraceptives and not enough time pointing out the democrats putting forth with women. he didn't do a good job pointing that out. >> okay. lz and anna, don't go anywhere. we're going to ask each of you what the mitt romney campaign did right and what they did wrong. thi
